Hashtag/Throwing what the kids call shade.
I'm so sick
Of rhyming
And timing
And each time I would flinch,
As you got closer
Inch
By
Inch.
Hashtag!
Maybe he didn't hit you,
But he didn't care that someone else did.
Hashtag!
Maybe he didn't hit you
But he left you in the street,
With nothing but the clothes on your back,
And the shoes on your feet!
And I have
Nothing to say to you,
Except that I hope divine intervention
Comes through.
You are the monster
You were always scared to be,
Because while you were off falling for other girls,
You were damaging me.
But I am whole,
Gladly without you.
Cut off the infection,
Let myself grow new.
Hashtag!
He didn't hit me,
But his words and stance
Could have destroyed me.
I'm so sick,
Of rhyming
And timing,
And each time I would flinch,
The closer you got,
Inch by inch.
You're a monster,
But I don't believe in you,
You're a disease,
But darling, I'm immune.
Sometimes I rhyme, and I usually only rhyme to insult people or to tell people I love them.
This is an insult.
*******.
